Product description

The bicycles were sold in a variety of colors and configurations. Consumers should inspect their bicycle to determine if it is affected by this recall by confirming:

The bicycle has a prominent CAADX marking on the top tube or other location.

The cable connected to the front disc brake is completely outside the fork blade.
